Love to help out!

[WizardEQ]

How many of you love, love, love! to help others out on P99? Put it on a scale of 1 to 10.

It's my nature, so I vote 10.

[Vohl]

I'd rate myself an 8. I enjoy it, but I need some Me time as well.

[Kope]

I'd probaby rate myself a 6, but it honestly all depends.

If I'm running to EC and see a group of low geared individuals (probably a group of friends new to the server) I'll give the casters crack and the melee augment.

If There are people exping around my group (i pretty much always group) I'll give them c randomly sometimes, always if they ask for it nicely.

The thing I can't stand is when someone expects C and calls me a selfish SOB for not running across the zone (and leaving the spawn i'm camping) to do it [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.].

probably an 8 for me. I do need some me time once in a while. otherwise it's fun.

it's a harsh world otherwise out there.

I'm definitely a 10. During a recent xp bonus session, rather than xping my character and taking advantage of the bonus, I PL'd a bunch of lower-than-lvl-10's the whole time I was on. When I get a few hundred plat (which usually takes me a while since I don't know how to make money), I usually buy a full set of bronze or a Blade of Xalgoz or something, and then I go to the lowbie zones looking for a player than can use it and is not twinked.

On Live, I started a DE Mage in November, 2000. After several years of playing this character regularly (a few times a week), I was only lvl 41, and that was the highest lvl I reached, because I spent most of my time online helping low lvls out. Honestly, I find that to be more fun than quad-kiting stuff that keeps resisting everything I cast on it.

Perhaps a 3 or so, I enjoy helping out certain kinds of characters, namely trolls, ogres, unusual race/class combinations, or characters with names that I like. On the other hand, I will ignore players with stupid names or especially bad grammar, as I am annoyed by those things in particular.

Agreed on the grammar issue, and also spelling for me. If someone is RPing as an ogre and asks for a SoW in phonetic ogre-speak, that's cool, and I actually enjoy and I'll try to RP back (even though I don't really know what a Wood Elf would sound like as opposed to a human). But if someone sends me a tell that reads:

"hay can u plzzzzz buf me or give me a sord im only lv4 an i dont hav any good wepon or anythng yet"

That person is not going to get any assistance from me, aside from my recommendation to resume and complete 3rd grade before operating a computer.

Yeah, the ogre/troll-speak is different, and I actually find it somewhat amusing.
